Muslim pilgrims throw pebbles at pillars during the Jamarat ritual, the stoning of Satan, in Mina near the holy city of Mecca, on October 15, 2013. Pilgrims pelt pillars symbolizing the devil with pebbles to show their defiance on the third day of the hajj as Muslims worldwide mark the Eid al-Adha or the Feast of the Sacrifice, marking the end of the hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and commemorating Abrahams willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail on Gods command in the holy city of Makkah.
